- 0:59Speaker 5: The bead on We kind that we kind of did,
- 1:00Speaker 5: but I can't lie, you know what I'm saying. We
- 1:01Speaker 5: had we had a period of time where we was
- 1:03Speaker 5: trying to, like, you know, figure out what was working
- 1:06Speaker 5: for others.
- 1:07Speaker 1: I guess you know what I'm saying. It's like, well, shit,
- 1:08Speaker 1: you gotta do this, you gotta do that.
- 1:09Speaker 5: But by the way, chase it not necessarily chasing a
- 1:12Speaker 5: sound way or even necessarily a trend. Is just you
- 1:14Speaker 5: get signed to a label and you're like, Okay, cool,
- 1:16Speaker 5: I want to be a successful with the rest of
- 1:18Speaker 5: these niggas on this label. When we was already kind
- 1:20Speaker 5: of headed that direction serving our core, so it's like, no,
- 1:23Speaker 5: let's just do the ship we love. We started every
- 1:26Speaker 5: game basically as like a music fan club when we
- 1:29Speaker 5: was kids.
- 1:29Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 1:30Speaker 5: We was literally just from the piracy generation, still in
- 1:32Speaker 5: music for our music, and this album is kind of
- 1:34Speaker 5: attribute to that era. It's a tribute to all the
- 1:36Speaker 5: ship we came up being fans of. We got gorillas
- 1:38Speaker 5: on it, we got Nettunes on it, we got you
- 1:40Speaker 5: know what I'm saying, People that were a little Dragon.
- 1:42Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 1:42Speaker 5: This is all people that we was fans of, that
- 1:44Speaker 5: like build our friendship, and we wanted to pay tribute
- 1:46Speaker 5: to that.
- 1:46Speaker 7: Was that pressures, sorry, was that pressures of the label
- 1:49Speaker 7: telling you guys to look around around.
- 1:51Speaker 1: People can't even blame nobody else. Bro.
- 1:54Speaker 6: As a as a business owner, you're always gonna like
- 1:57Speaker 6: go over your yearly reports and see what's working with
- 2:00Speaker 6: not working, and sometimes you put that before what you
- 2:03Speaker 6: want to create.
- 2:03Speaker 1: And as a human being, sometimes you're gonna look left
- 2:05Speaker 1: and right and compare it. And that's just some ship.
- 2:07Speaker 1: You gotta out grow and let that shit go.
- 2:09Speaker 2: But I mean on Dreamville, it's like Cole is clearly
- 2:12Speaker 2: the most successful, right then it's like, yeah, it has
- 2:15Speaker 2: some really really real success, you know what I mean.
- 2:18Speaker 2: But y'all also different. I'm like, other than the success pult,
- 2:21Speaker 2: what would y'all compare?
- 2:22Speaker 1: Well, it wasn't even even compared with Dreamville.
- 2:24Speaker 5: I'm talking about Interscope, Bro, I'm talking about we signed
- 2:28Speaker 5: in the Scope because dream It is kind of like, hey, everybody,
- 2:30Speaker 5: do what you want, a big fun party. But like
- 2:33Speaker 5: we was going in the Scope when I was you know,
- 2:34Speaker 5: there's other rappers on that ship. You meet niggas, you
- 2:36Speaker 5: see a niggas show up different places. Y'all got the
- 2:38Speaker 5: same parties. This nigga showed up in this, and you
- 2:40Speaker 5: showed up in that, and it's like, well, why ain't
- 2:42Speaker 5: show up in that? And it's something. It's a feeling
- 2:44Speaker 5: that you got to process, let go and then realize
- 2:46Speaker 5: what brought you here in the first place, like that
- 2:48Speaker 5: with your own core.
- 2:49Speaker 2: Yes, what era did you guys?
- 2:51Speaker 8: Realize that?
- 2:52Speaker 9: Because I feel like you guys have always been pretty
- 2:54Speaker 9: ghetto guys.
- 2:55Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, ghetto guys.
- 2:58Speaker 1: What's funny? Ghetto guys did everything we said O work
- 3:00Speaker 1: to do.
- 3:02Speaker 6: The niggas was fucking with our fan base is not
- 3:06Speaker 6: I think, you know what I'm saying.
- 3:08Speaker 5: They a lot of them, a lot of even outside
- 3:13Speaker 5: of the Crackers.
- 3:13Speaker 1: It's just like a certain type of like just core person.
- 3:16Speaker 6: Yeah, a person, a person who's like really explored in life,
- 3:20Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. They want eventure life and
- 3:22Speaker 6: we but we're from Atlanta even though we got that
- 3:25Speaker 6: in us though, so like when we was in Atlanta,
- 3:26Speaker 6: it was easy to like go and do these shows
- 3:28Speaker 6: and like connect with the black people in Atlanta, and
- 3:31Speaker 6: but when we stepped outside of that, then we seeing
- 3:32Speaker 6: like our music really just affects people all across the world.
- 3:35Speaker 1: The world.
- 3:36Speaker 5: He was the only he was the only artist traveling
- 3:38Speaker 5: in the pandemic, and then the only niggas like doing
- 3:40Speaker 5: New Zealand shows, you know what I'm saying.
- 3:43Speaker 1: So we had to see that impact.
- 3:45Speaker 6: But then when we made Ghetto Guys, it was during
- 3:47Speaker 6: the pandemic, so we was primarily at the crib, you
- 3:49Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. So these are stories we we
- 3:52Speaker 6: artists were right what we see. These are stories of
- 3:54Speaker 6: people that we grew up with that we're seeing again
- 3:56Speaker 6: after we don't travel New Zealand, after we done did
- 3:57Speaker 6: two tours in Europe, after we don't did South Africa,
- 4:00Speaker 6: were back home for two and a half years, seeing
- 4:02Speaker 6: like all shoty kind of in the same situation. You
- 4:05Speaker 6: got to think about it, kind of she's growing, but
- 4:07Speaker 6: she's still in the same situation. Our lives are different.
- 4:10Speaker 6: And then it's like we clashed again, not like class violently,
- 4:13Speaker 6: but it's like we come to see all of this stuff.
- 4:15Speaker 6: So we're writing this stuff and the music and it's
- 4:18Speaker 6: not connecting with everybody and our fan based you know
- 4:21Speaker 6: what I'm saying.
- 4:22Speaker 5: It was like, well, if we're going to connect, might
- 4:23Speaker 5: well just be free, just do what you want. You
- 4:25Speaker 5: know what I'm saying, Well, gett guys. I love that album,
- 4:28Speaker 5: but a lot of it was, uh, you know, you
- 4:30Speaker 5: get like you said, you got back home, your older
- 4:32Speaker 5: cousins and big homies and ship. They're like, man, we're like,

- 4:49Speaker 5: And then what happened? We want to bet or we
- 4:52Speaker 5: didn't even go that year? Bro, I swear to god,
- 4:54Speaker 5: Bro we done. I was like, yay, we're not going.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Bro, Gorilla don't with the gorillas.

- 5:07Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, keep doing this ship end
- 5:09Speaker 5: up winning.
- 5:10Speaker 1: So the goal was achieve get gout.
- 5:12Speaker 5: We made something for niggas, that essence to make some
- 5:14Speaker 5: ship and it went well. But then we also had
- 5:16Speaker 5: to step back and be like, but like, what's like
- 5:18Speaker 5: the core of who we are and who we are
- 5:21Speaker 5: is bound the six niggage plus you know what I'm saying, Yeah,
- 5:25Speaker 5: boundless expression is it's some niggas in there.
- 5:27Speaker 1: It's it's some cracking in there. It's some you know
- 5:29Speaker 1: what I'm saying.
- 5:30Speaker 2: I don't want to say all the slursa comparisons get
- 5:37Speaker 2: to you all a little bit.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Not once. That was never an issue. That was never
- 5:40Speaker 1: an issue.
- 5:40Speaker 6: It's never I mean even even with all the artists
- 5:44Speaker 6: that we love, like you said Little Dragon Gorilla's outcast
- 5:47Speaker 6: Deptunes like those are artists that always, you know what
- 5:50Speaker 6: I'm saying, like do what they want to do. But
- 5:52Speaker 6: I think even even with outcasts, I mean, I know
- 5:54Speaker 6: a lot of people sleep on what the what the second?
- 5:57Speaker 6: What the second project? Well, no, the second one second
- 6:00Speaker 6: atli at l is a lot of people sleep on
- 6:02Speaker 6: at llens, you know what I'm saying, Like people jump
- 6:04Speaker 6: from some playlistic A lot of people sleep you know
- 6:08Speaker 6: what I'm saying. But from Atlanta though, you know what
- 6:10Speaker 6: I'm saying, so a lot of people sleep on at llens.
- 6:11Speaker 6: But like for folks in Atlanta, when you know you
- 6:14Speaker 6: like fish and gritscenartic, when that stuff come on, like
- 6:16Speaker 6: people start losing in and but like you know a
- 6:19Speaker 6: lot of people like speaker Box Love Blow, how people
- 6:21Speaker 6: go to the dope Delicious, you know what I'm saying,
- 6:23Speaker 6: these records on the Crimini stuff. But like there is
- 6:26Speaker 6: just a process of like you jump right out there,
- 6:29Speaker 6: you come back home, you see what's going on, and
- 6:31Speaker 6: you jump back out there again, you come back home.
- 6:33Speaker 6: I think a lot of artists go through that stuff. Yeah,
- 6:35Speaker 6: and it's natural.
- 6:36Speaker 2: And clearly all successes and created equal, right because y'all
- 6:39Speaker 2: traveling all around the world. You just showed our shows
- 6:43Speaker 2: making money. But then when you come home, you walking
- 6:46Speaker 2: back to the city and don't get that love you Like,
- 6:48Speaker 2: I want to hear.
- 6:50Speaker 1: The love.
- 6:50Speaker 5: And I think we got like a hometown love there
- 6:52Speaker 5: because some of them strippers.
- 6:54Speaker 1: I still went to high school. I've seen, like you
- 6:56Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, that's a different.
- 6:59Speaker 2: I'm like, man, we get we get love.
- 7:02Speaker 1: We took the gorillas up through the Love show Love.
- 7:06Speaker 6: But it's like it's more of a personal person love
- 7:09Speaker 6: rather than like, uh yeah, y'all just the music. What
- 7:15Speaker 6: y'all doing, y'all niggas inspire me. It's not that play
- 7:18Speaker 6: all the time whatever, but you see that inspire me.
- 7:21Speaker 3: Y'all try to make records for the club that y'all
- 7:23Speaker 3: go to, or is it like no, never?
- 7:25Speaker 5: I don't never, because like that ship changed all the
- 7:27Speaker 5: time to you can't. Really that's a little too fast
- 7:29Speaker 5: to chase, you know what I'm saying, Like like them
- 7:32Speaker 5: kind of records.
- 7:33Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Something beg one one week
- 7:35Speaker 1: in the club and then next week is not.

- 11:04Speaker 6: of way, you know what I'm saying. He was just like,
- 11:05Speaker 6: but you got to be able to find the right
- 11:07Speaker 6: spaces for you to be valuable rather than like trying
- 11:10Speaker 6: to like sell yourself to everybody walking in in the rooms.
- 11:13Speaker 6: They'll be like, yo, y'all don't want to use me
- 11:15Speaker 6: for this. Y'all don't use me for that, because that's
- 11:17Speaker 6: when you get in positions where, you know what I'm saying,
- 11:19Speaker 6: like taking advantage of I.
- 11:21Speaker 2: Would love to know the conversations that y'all have had
- 11:23Speaker 2: with people like Seelot, you know what I mean, even

- 14:33Speaker 4: a success and stuff.
- 14:34Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to anybody. How you keep me out?
- 14:38Speaker 5: But he had to clear the record, right, yeah, okay,

- 14:50Speaker 6: Why not Pain?
- 14:53Speaker 1: Is a good nigga.
- 14:54Speaker 5: Bro, He's going to niggas out here, Bro, Like I said,
- 14:57Speaker 5: he a nigga you can actually just talked to.
- 14:59Speaker 1: He's gonna tell you some real shit that he been through.
- 15:00Speaker 1: He's gonna give you some you.
- 15:01Speaker 5: Know what I'm saying, necessary words of caution, like a
- 15:04Speaker 5: lot of the niggas out here, just you know what
- 15:05Speaker 5: I'm saying, be dead in the eyes and shit, he
- 15:06Speaker 5: still got the youth and the life in his eyes.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Like nigga that she's important.
- 15:11Speaker 8: What's the craziest I.
- 15:14Speaker 5: Mean, the craziest story I would say is just the
- 15:16Speaker 5: whole ship about him, you know what I'm saying, being Richard,
- 15:18Speaker 5: the story he tells everybody that he was rich as
- 15:19Speaker 5: fucking nineteen and how that ship went down here, you
- 15:22Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. But that's a good story told
- 15:26Speaker 5: like that to niggas on the way like that helps.
- 15:30Speaker 5: But I remember, you know what I'm saying. T Paint
- 15:31Speaker 5: also got us pretty drunk and we just thought about it,
- 15:34Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. But he also we did
- 15:35Speaker 5: the song to Quila with him before that, and that
- 15:38Speaker 5: was that was just a powtferm moment. We didn't get
- 15:39Speaker 5: to do that in real time. But then after that
- 15:41Speaker 5: we did that, we did that. I love you more
- 15:43Speaker 5: and he was like he was kind of holding it
- 15:45Speaker 5: for his ship, and then he was like, I don't
- 15:46Speaker 5: really know what to do with this. And then by
- 15:48Speaker 5: the time he gave it us, he was like, I'm
- 15:49Speaker 5: so glad y'all got I put in the right hands,
- 15:51Speaker 5: like I don't want to, like I ain't know what
- 15:52Speaker 5: to do with this ship.
- 15:53Speaker 6: So people love that record too, people people really love
- 15:55Speaker 6: that record.
- 15:56Speaker 7: Y'all are so reminiscent of so many different things, and
- 15:58Speaker 7: you're working with people that like, like, hearing you say
- 16:00Speaker 7: you made a song to killer with T Pain, I
- 16:02Speaker 7: instantly think, of course, buy you a drink and like
- 16:05Speaker 7: do y'all is there pressure at that point where you're
- 16:06Speaker 7: like hmm, like we want to deliver pressure felt when
- 16:10Speaker 7: you heard pain being young?
- 16:13Speaker 3: That's it.
- 16:13Speaker 6: I mean, there's no pressure. All you want to do
- 16:15Speaker 6: is just enjoy the moment.
- 16:17Speaker 5: The pressure allegated by the dream bro. It's like, I
- 16:19Speaker 5: can't believe I'm doing this shit Like fu pressures. I
- 16:21Speaker 5: mean this, this is the reality of right right now.
- 16:23Speaker 5: It's better than any Pressure's stronger than any pressure could be.
- 16:26Speaker 8: Yeah, I was.
- 16:27Speaker 4: I was j Cole as a label owner, right and
- 16:29Speaker 4: the reason I asked, is he owns a label but
- 16:32Speaker 4: he's also an artist?
- 16:33Speaker 7: Right?
- 16:34Speaker 5: Uh?
- 16:34Speaker 3: And and I think maybe a couple of years.
- 16:36Speaker 4: Ago, maybe a four or five years ago, Cole will
- 16:38Speaker 4: call me and he would ask me about the mixtape error,
- 16:40Speaker 4: right because he was like, I got these artists and
- 16:43Speaker 4: I want to break back into that mixtape eraror how
- 16:44Speaker 4: did that happen? Like he's he's somebody that dives into everything.
- 16:48Speaker 4: Like he reminds me of somebody that always wants to
- 16:50Speaker 4: research because he wants to know everything that goes around.
- 16:52Speaker 3: So how was he as a label owner when it
- 16:54Speaker 3: comes to his artist?
- 16:55Speaker 6: I mean, I think the coolest thing is like he's
- 16:57Speaker 6: not like a label owner. He don't he don't ever
- 16:59Speaker 6: act like a label owner or a boss or nothing.
- 17:02Speaker 6: That's why we wanted to do business with him because
- 17:05Speaker 6: it was equal you know what I'm saying.
- 17:06Speaker 5: Like shout out to Twitter because niggas love saying hey yo,
- 17:08Speaker 5: call y'all boss my mouse.
- 17:13Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. So it's like we we
- 17:16Speaker 6: got into it because it was it was an equal partnership.
- 17:18Speaker 6: And then secondly, he approaches it from an artist's standpoint.
- 17:22Speaker 6: He made it's always make the most honest music to
- 17:25Speaker 6: you and then put it out and it'll you know
- 17:27Speaker 6: what I'm saying, it'll connect. I mean, that's that's who
- 17:29Speaker 6: he is. That's what he's done. That set sets him
- 17:32Speaker 6: apart from a lot of people. And it's like that's
- 17:34Speaker 6: still the blueprint for everybody that he works with, you
- 17:36Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. So it's never like you ain't
- 17:38Speaker 6: got no hit yet, you know what I'm saying. It's
- 17:39Speaker 6: never like that. It's it's just are you doing the honest,
- 17:43Speaker 6: the most honest music for you? And it's like, all right,
- 17:44Speaker 6: well then put that ship out? See what do do
- 17:46Speaker 6: it again? Do it again?
- 17:47Speaker 2: What's it like? I've always feel like y'all don't really
- 17:51Speaker 2: move like a unit.
- 17:53Speaker 1: Like I know everybody can do their own thing. Bro,
- 17:55Speaker 1: I ain't gonna hold you. Bro.
- 17:56Speaker 5: There are times where I like, it's like some grow
- 18:01Speaker 5: chest and ship. But I was, I was, I ain't gonna.
- 18:03Speaker 5: Times were always let like I would see your gotta
- 18:05Speaker 5: come up here, like damn ain't doing the Yo Gotti
- 18:07Speaker 5: ship man, We need to do this, Yo.
- 18:09Speaker 1: Got he come up here with anybody? Hes he just
- 18:11Speaker 1: come up here with him? Yeah? It does it? Does it?
- 18:14Speaker 3: Does with all his art. You don't see him. You
- 18:16Speaker 3: can be outside.
- 18:17Speaker 1: But I believe, I believe, and I been saluted them.
- 18:20Speaker 1: I respect that ship.
- 18:20Speaker 5: But at the same time, you know what I'm saying,
- 18:22Speaker 5: niggas move how they move, and I think I think
- 18:24Speaker 5: the the honesty and the truth, like he said behind
- 18:28Speaker 5: Dreamville is kind of what keeps us out united. Like
- 18:30Speaker 5: you know, niggas ain't necessarily on the like smiling in
- 18:34Speaker 5: your face.
- 18:35Speaker 2: You know, I'm relationship.
- 18:37Speaker 6: We were we were just with man he did last week.
- 18:45Speaker 7: A yeah, alright, she said she was leaving social media.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Should should.
- 18:57Speaker 5: It would hurt them so bad. The people don't know
- 18:58Speaker 5: that ship, Like we don't have that type of unity.
- 19:00Speaker 5: But yeah, I feel alright, Bro. When when we first
- 19:02Speaker 5: signed to already I signed Already signed the dream Ville, Uh,
- 19:05Speaker 5: like CO had us r G all in the house
- 19:08Speaker 5: on some like making the band ship. So we built
- 19:10Speaker 5: like a real like she said, like, yeah, we didn't.
- 19:15Speaker 5: We didn't have to make the band. Yeah, I won't
- 19:18Speaker 5: walk for nobody talking about that. You have the whole
- 19:24Speaker 5: put a gun in my face, bro, you probably have
- 19:26Speaker 5: to put a trigger. But we just built like a
- 19:29Speaker 5: sibling type relationship with r and them during that time,
- 19:31Speaker 5: and that she you know what I'm saying, I'm always
- 19:33Speaker 5: chicking ay, and I hope she do.
- 19:34Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 19:37Speaker 6: Already is fine. I don't know why people try and like,
- 19:39Speaker 6: how are.
- 19:39Speaker 3: We doing two years?
- 19:43Speaker 7: I think it's because for me as a fan watching her,
- 19:46Speaker 7: first of all, I feel like she doesn't get a
- 19:48Speaker 7: lot of her just do That's number one. Secondly, I
- 19:50Speaker 7: feel like when anything she does, people always like attached
- 19:54Speaker 7: to us. Sometimes it's not the most positive and it's
- 19:56Speaker 7: so not warranted because she minds her business exactly. But
- 19:59Speaker 7: sometimes I get it's to people and she seems very
- 20:01Speaker 7: strong minded, but.
- 20:02Speaker 6: It can get to know that's compassionate so well appreciate
- 20:06Speaker 6: them questions and I think, you know what I'm saying,
- 20:08Speaker 6: what you're saying really matters, though, Like as long as
- 20:10Speaker 6: you be yourself, it's not gonna always you know what
- 20:12Speaker 6: I'm saying, connect sometimes or people gonna gonna come at you.
- 20:15Speaker 6: People don't like people who are authentic, you know what
- 20:17Speaker 6: I'm saying, people super especially on social media because people
- 20:20Speaker 6: they hate.
- 20:21Speaker 1: That the social media.
- 20:26Speaker 6: So people are gonna attack her because she's authentic, because
- 20:28Speaker 6: she's herself. So that's why we're saying, like it's it's
- 20:31Speaker 6: good that you should get off social media because some
- 20:33Speaker 6: people should not have to like be you know what
- 20:35Speaker 6: I'm saying, like succumb to that all the time. Just
- 20:38Speaker 6: be yourself and let your stuff. It's it's a lot
- 20:41Speaker 6: of movie stars from model social media, like they really
- 20:45Speaker 6: like people who really really push you know what I'm saying,
- 20:47Speaker 6: Like culture like don't have social media, so it's like
- 20:50Speaker 6: it's not a necessity. And we think a lot of
- 20:52Speaker 6: people got to understand that because like you don't have
- 20:54Speaker 6: to put yourself out there that much every day to
- 20:57Speaker 6: appease people. You know what I'm saying, the.
- 20:59Speaker 2: Real because I hate them ship to it. They'll put
- 21:01Speaker 2: him in black and white and put that spooky music
- 21:03Speaker 2: behind it. You know what I meant, put a river
- 21:05Speaker 2: and you can say anything.
- 21:07Speaker 5: Anything, bro, bro, and it works because you know what
- 21:10Speaker 5: I'm saying, it worked the same way McDonald's Burger's worked.
- 21:12Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, Like it ain't like it
- 21:13Speaker 5: ain't better for nobody, but it's as quick as fast
- 21:15Speaker 5: and it gets whatever I need it in my mind done.
- 21:18Speaker 5: So it's like all right, cool, I'm gonna keep eating
- 21:20Speaker 5: that ship. But like, imagine a nigga like Daniel day
- 21:22Speaker 5: Lewis on social media. You know what I'm saying, Like
- 21:24Speaker 5: somebody who'll.
- 21:25Speaker 6: Be like, imagine this watching it on social media, it
- 21:28Speaker 6: was like, bro, like.
- 21:29Speaker 1: Not him having to be fake. Imagine doing a real
- 21:36Speaker 1: you know.
- 21:36Speaker 6: What, I don't want to see this at all.
- 21:39Speaker 2: That could be fired because all you gotta do is
- 21:40Speaker 2: topping his characters next one day for training.
- 21:44Speaker 6: His old characters go crazy, but he do it fifty times,
- 21:47Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. Then it's just like, bro,
- 21:48Speaker 6: I just really won't want to just watch it.
- 21:50Speaker 1: Will Smith hot on social media and you know he's
- 21:52Speaker 1: slapping niggas on stage. Bro, he was. He was a
- 21:55Speaker 1: lot cooler to a lot of people before that ship haven't.
- 21:57Speaker 2: But you know, you do have some people who are
- 21:58Speaker 2: really like fifty centers really himself, funny, really himself.
- 22:05Speaker 6: It's really the gift. Some people are really fire at it,
- 22:09Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. Some people probably shouldn't be
- 22:11Speaker 6: on it, Like it's really it's not for everybody. I
- 22:13Speaker 6: think That's what I think a lot of people say.
- 22:15Speaker 6: It's like social media for everybody. It's the new way,
- 22:17Speaker 6: like you gotta be on it to promote, you gotta
- 22:19Speaker 6: be on to do this, Like I mean, then you
- 22:21Speaker 6: just turn your back on all these other ways to
- 22:23Speaker 6: connect people.
- 22:24Speaker 2: I do want to go back to something y'all talk
- 22:25Speaker 2: about with dreamvieer. What's the point of doing revenge of
- 22:27Speaker 2: the dream of compilations then, because I feel like that's
- 22:29Speaker 2: the moment where Cole should be like, all right, we're
- 22:32Speaker 2: gonna make these radio runs, We're gonna do these shows together,
- 22:35Speaker 2: like that should be. That's the time you got You're
- 22:37Speaker 2: putting everybody in this compilation album. Now let's go push
- 22:40Speaker 2: the whole label.
- 22:41Speaker 8: The fans will listen either way. If that does, we
- 22:44Speaker 8: be wanting.
- 22:46Speaker 1: About that would too ship.
- 22:51Speaker 8: You never try get very vocal. You've never tried.
- 22:54Speaker 1: I got a lot of opinions.
- 22:55Speaker 5: I feel like I got so many opinions I get
- 22:57Speaker 5: pushed into like the crazy news category sometimes because I'm
- 22:59Speaker 5: all with a with a new idea.
- 23:01Speaker 1: I'm like a fountain of ideas.
- 23:05Speaker 2: When you're gonna with us, like you know, put us
- 23:07Speaker 2: on some stages, show up with us.
- 23:09Speaker 1: I mean.
- 23:11Speaker 3: You want to y'all want him to do that?
- 23:13Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yeah, at this point.
- 23:16Speaker 5: I think we are very solid in who we have,
- 23:18Speaker 5: Like fan base wise, it's growing steadily.
- 23:20Speaker 1: It's core, core strong.
- 23:22Speaker 5: We're gonna tell our shows, We're gonna get mercy, We're
- 23:24Speaker 5: gonna get money. So like that, you know what I'm saying.
- 23:26Speaker 5: That's there's enough solidarity within that to build that and
- 23:28Speaker 5: focus on that. But at the same time, I think
- 23:30Speaker 5: it's bigger. It's a bigger thing when you when when
- 23:32Speaker 5: when there's unity and like a bunch of us, you
- 23:34Speaker 5: know what I'm saying, coming together. We went on tour
- 23:36Speaker 5: Cold you know what I'm saying, what two or three times?
- 23:39Speaker 5: That was really good for us. You know what I'm saying,
- 23:40Speaker 5: what we want. We was on the We was on
- 23:42Speaker 5: the I am my opinion, the best tour. It was
- 23:44Speaker 5: us Y s l Jaden Smith Cole that was that
- 23:48Speaker 5: was like, you can't make it a better tour that
- 23:49Speaker 5: she was like a movie but like her jaded.
- 23:51Speaker 4: Will talk about it the other day talking about Doug
- 23:53Speaker 4: came in this room. It was like, Yo, how come
- 23:54Speaker 4: there's no girls in your room?
- 23:55Speaker 1: Mamb He never had nos in there, but.
- 24:00Speaker 3: That it was true.

- 24:43Speaker 5: I didn't even think about it, bro, Like we'll just
- 24:44Speaker 5: be making music, bro, Like I ain't got time to
- 24:46Speaker 5: be thinking about my man.
- 24:47Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. It's not like it's not like, Yo,
- 24:50Speaker 6: we're trying to do anybody dreaming. Don't be trying to
- 24:53Speaker 6: hit him up for a play.
- 24:54Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think so.
- 24:56Speaker 9: Is this the end of a trilogy?
- 25:00Speaker 5: Yeah, essentially, Yeah, I mean it's it's it's the I
- 25:02Speaker 5: would say it's the versus. It's gonna say, the bigger
- 25:06Speaker 5: campaign is Earth Game Versus the Algorithm.
- 25:08Speaker 9: So this project, I was just a little confused because
- 25:11Speaker 9: some of the records are already familiar with and then
- 25:13Speaker 9: some of them are weren't. So this project is like
- 25:15Speaker 9: like both of them combined.
- 25:17Speaker 6: Yeah, this project, I mean what we what we wanted
- 25:19Speaker 6: to do with this project and everything else on Earth
- 25:21Speaker 6: Game versus the Algorithm is like, man, just dump all
- 25:23Speaker 6: that on its head, you know what I'm saying. Like,
- 25:25Speaker 6: even that's why we're releasing on Tuesday. We dunk, were
- 25:28Speaker 6: breaking the rules. So we're putting new music with our
- 25:31Speaker 6: EPs that we know our fan base love, and we're
- 25:33Speaker 6: just putting it all together because it's like why like
- 25:35Speaker 6: why try to limit how people receive this? You know
- 25:38Speaker 6: what I'm saying. It's like, it's just enjoy it. Enjoy it.
- 25:40Speaker 6: So like we got got a lot of good stuff
- 25:43Speaker 6: on this new project that were just delivering the people.
- 25:49Speaker 2: The day it was the day they changed it, the
- 25:51Speaker 2: Friday Robophobia tell us why we should be afraid?
- 25:55Speaker 1: We shouldn't. I don't think we should.
- 25:57Speaker 5: I think I think we we brought up the concept
- 25:59Speaker 5: role for we want because we wanted to we wanted
- 26:01Speaker 5: to be just documented as saying the term before it
- 26:03Speaker 5: got everywhere. But even outside of that, uh, you know
- 26:06Speaker 5: what I'm saying, it's really just to kind of call
- 26:07Speaker 5: in the question, like what is what do we care about?
- 26:10Speaker 1: Do we care? Is there an impending doom? I think?
- 26:14Speaker 1: Is it like a mess that we're gonna have to
- 26:16Speaker 1: just be a part of.
- 26:17Speaker 6: If you don't prepare, you should be afraid. I ain't
- 26:19Speaker 6: gonna say you shouldn't be afraid if you don't prepare,
- 26:21Speaker 6: because they will jobs. You know what I'm saying, Like
- 26:24Speaker 6: it's serious out there for real, Like, so just be
- 26:27Speaker 6: prepared understanding how to use a I understand how to
- 26:30Speaker 6: use the technology. I mean, if you're smart, it's gonna
- 26:32Speaker 6: cut all this hours of stuff away that you're trying
- 26:35Speaker 6: to do when you can have more time to enjoy life.
- 26:37Speaker 2: I just don't want us to get away from using
- 26:38Speaker 2: our brains, because the brain are still the most powerful
- 26:41Speaker 2: always always.
- 26:42Speaker 6: Yeah, that's crazy.
- 26:46Speaker 5: Wow, I'm with the robot revolution, man. I think I
- 26:49Speaker 5: think we should a lot of sex work. It should
- 26:51Speaker 5: be robots, Like we just go ahead and just nip
- 26:54Speaker 5: that in the butt. Let's just go ahead and get
- 26:55Speaker 5: a whole fleet of that whatever.
- 26:58Speaker 2: They start thinking for themself and they be me too.
- 27:03Speaker 1: I wasn't comfortable with that.
- 27:10Speaker 5: I'm trying to tell you, don't do it about Red
- 27:15Speaker 5: Flag O, Red Flag Man. So initially Red Flag was made.
- 27:18Speaker 5: It was when we first made that song. It was
- 27:20Speaker 5: right when Britney Spears had got let off her uh
- 27:23Speaker 5: her Conservatives ship, so the song was called Britney Spears.
- 27:25Speaker 1: At first.
- 27:26Speaker 5: It's even a couple of shots out to her in
- 27:27Speaker 5: the song, like when I was like hit me baby
- 27:29Speaker 5: one more time, and like shit like that. So it
- 27:31Speaker 5: was all like, even though I know you think I'm crazy,
- 27:33Speaker 5: that's a line that was like I said that like that,
- 27:35Speaker 5: people just think she's crazy.
- 27:36Speaker 1: They don't even really know her, you know what I'm saying.
- 27:38Speaker 5: So like, but then it kind of just evolved into
- 27:40Speaker 5: like the whole conversation that we all having right now
- 27:43Speaker 5: about dating.
- 27:44Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, What is a red flag?
- 27:45Speaker 1: What's the green flag? What matters? What don't matter?
- 27:47Speaker 5: Why we're talking about body counts and bank account so much?
- 27:49Speaker 5: We should be talking about your relationship with your motherfucking mother, bro, like.
- 27:53Speaker 1: Your dad.
- 27:56Speaker 6: Or are you aware of these red flags and are
- 27:59Speaker 6: you trying to change them? Like are you enjoying life
- 28:01Speaker 6: in the process? I think, I mean, I'm curious why
- 28:03Speaker 6: you pointed that one out because I love it. Yeah,
- 28:06Speaker 6: because we love that song that I was made early
- 28:08Speaker 6: in the project. We thought that on it because we
- 28:10Speaker 6: really loved it. But like we're saying, it's really prophetic
- 28:13Speaker 6: because we talking about this in twenty twenty one and
- 28:16Speaker 6: now twenty twenty four, you're seeing people talk about attachment
- 28:18Speaker 6: theory and all this and all that, and folks really
- 28:20Speaker 6: happen to like look in the mirror and being like, damn,
- 28:22Speaker 6: am I the problem? You know what I'm saying. But
- 28:24Speaker 6: I think it's important that we talk about it and
- 28:26Speaker 6: also like just enjoy life through the process, because I
- 28:30Speaker 6: feel like a lot of everybody got got red flags.
- 28:32Speaker 6: People being in a relationship for ten fifteen years, happily
- 28:35Speaker 6: marriede still red flags that you just these some these
- 28:38Speaker 6: are the things that were just gonna continue to work
- 28:41Speaker 6: on as we in partnership, whether it's romantic partnership with
- 28:44Speaker 6: just regular partnership. You know what I'm saying, It is
- 28:46Speaker 6: what it is.
- 28:47Speaker 5: Somebody talk about thelatonic red flash y'all be actually just
- 28:50Speaker 5: good at friends with niggas that you know, be doing
- 28:52Speaker 5: that shit.
- 28:53Speaker 6: And that I mean, that's that that that friendship stuff,
- 28:55Speaker 6: the stuff that you align friendship seeps into your romantic
- 28:58Speaker 6: relationships too, you know what I'm saying, Or the stuff
- 29:00Speaker 6: that you like. People, A lot of people jump straight
- 29:02Speaker 6: into romantic relationships and you should like look around your friendships.
- 29:04Speaker 6: You be like, why are you friends with this person?
- 29:07Speaker 6: This is what works, This is why y'all y'all solid?
- 29:09Speaker 6: Then like be solid with your romantic partner. Partner that
- 29:11Speaker 6: way too. A lot of people just be like, it's
- 29:14Speaker 6: romantic relationship. So it's supposed to be completely different. You
- 29:16Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. It's supposed to be a Disney movie.
- 29:18Speaker 6: Like all these other rules that I gotta use to
- 29:21Speaker 6: keep these other relationships in my life solid don't apply
- 29:23Speaker 6: to this one. This is different. It's like it is,
- 29:26Speaker 6: but it's the same foundation though, you know what I'm saying.
- 29:28Speaker 2: Everything y'all say is so true. I always wonder why
- 29:31Speaker 2: do guys have more loyally than they do than the woman.
- 29:34Speaker 1: That they go home with, Like barbership is different down
- 29:45Speaker 1: work through that.
- 29:48Speaker 2: And what y'all said earlier about you said the bank account.
- 29:50Speaker 2: People sitt around talking about their bank account. They're doing
- 29:53Speaker 2: that because they got to They're distracting themselves from actually
- 29:55Speaker 2: dealing with the with the person. Yeah, you know, and
- 29:58Speaker 2: I think COVID made everybody you have to sit still
- 30:01Speaker 2: and look in that mirror for the first time. But
- 30:02Speaker 2: if you ain't, never did no work on yourself, no therapy, nothing.
- 30:05Speaker 2: Niggas went crazy like an of breaks.
- 30:08Speaker 6: Niggas lost its, lost their minds, and they sitting in
- 30:10Speaker 6: the same room too, or they in the room with
- 30:13Speaker 6: somebody who they don't like, you know what I'm saying,
- 30:15Speaker 6: and they sleeping next to the somebody they don't like it.
- 30:17Speaker 6: You know, you like that, you know what I'm saying.
- 30:20Speaker 6: So it's like you write a lot of things. And
- 30:22Speaker 6: I think even us writing that song during that period,
- 30:25Speaker 6: and all of these people now are con like a
- 30:27Speaker 6: lot of people are just like breaking up with all
- 30:29Speaker 6: those relationships that people felt like during the pandemic. During COVID,
- 30:32Speaker 6: folks had to get together for survival, you know what
- 30:34Speaker 6: I'm saying. It's like you know what's yeah, like that
- 30:45Speaker 6: different we're outside for show that's even still around. The
- 30:49Speaker 6: relationship I got during during the pandemic was because it
- 30:53Speaker 6: was with some girls that had moved to Atlanta because
- 30:55Speaker 6: they needed somewhere to dance. So I'm like, all right, cool,
- 30:58Speaker 6: you know the strip club open here, come on down
- 31:00Speaker 6: next thing.
- 31:00Speaker 1: I know.
- 31:05Speaker 5: I want to try to say I'm just telling the
- 31:07Speaker 5: whe they go get some work at it. But I'm like, bro,
- 31:09Speaker 5: but since ye're all time, we can kick it. We
- 31:11Speaker 5: end up getting a connection, and I'm like, now I'm
- 31:13Speaker 5: connected with the beast.
- 31:13Speaker 1: I don't really like that.
- 31:14Speaker 6: You don't really.
- 31:17Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 31:19Speaker 2: This the first time she's hearing that you didn't really
- 31:21Speaker 2: like her.
- 31:21Speaker 1: No, No, this conversation we've been broke up. It's a
- 31:25Speaker 1: long time ago.
- 31:26Speaker 2: Do you think we got real community nowadays?
- 31:29Speaker 1: Uh? Man.
- 31:31Speaker 5: Not to be that nigga, but a lot of community
- 31:32Speaker 5: that when niggas start going to church. I'm a nigga
- 31:34Speaker 5: that don't go to church, so I'm part of the problem.
- 31:36Speaker 6: But a lot of community died when niggas got on
- 31:38Speaker 6: the line, got on the internet.
- 31:39Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 31:40Speaker 6: Like, I feel like community is built by like people
- 31:43Speaker 6: who like really see you invalidate you. You know what
- 31:45Speaker 6: I'm saying. I feel like y'all got community in here.
- 31:47Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. We got community here with
- 31:49Speaker 6: our people right here. You know what I'm saying. But
- 31:51Speaker 6: like online, that ship fake, you know what I'm saying,
- 31:54Speaker 6: Like people could validate you one day and then the
- 31:56Speaker 6: next day they could throw tomatoes at you because you
- 31:58Speaker 6: you say something that they don't care about. Like shit,
- 32:00Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. Like real communities, people who
- 32:02Speaker 6: gonna uphold you when you're falling down all this stuff,
- 32:05Speaker 6: so like it's possible, But like when you try to
- 32:08Speaker 6: jump straight to the shortcut, you know what I'm saying,
- 32:10Speaker 6: that's when you got two hundred and thirty thousand follows,
- 32:12Speaker 6: But you lonely as hell, so you don't have real community.
- 32:15Speaker 10: What you mean by community down when people start going
- 32:17Speaker 10: to church, you know, there was a there was a
- 32:21Speaker 10: there was a like you said, there was a physical
- 32:22Speaker 10: place to to to know and relate to people, to fellowship.
- 32:27Speaker 5: All that shit was important, you know what I'm saying.
- 32:29Speaker 5: That's that's where for our people, that's where we came
- 32:31Speaker 5: up with a lot of stuff. For the civil rights movement,
- 32:34Speaker 5: people stopped going to people started no no, no, no stop.
- 32:37Speaker 1: No no no. When when people like I said, I
- 32:39Speaker 1: don't go to church, I'm part of the problem.
- 32:41Speaker 5: But when niggas go to church, Like when I look
- 32:43Speaker 5: back on all the generations my auntiem, my mom and them,
- 32:46Speaker 5: the people that they love and the people that helped
- 32:47Speaker 5: them through hard ship, like when when my when my
- 32:49Speaker 5: dad got in a carson and they couldn't walk for
- 32:51Speaker 5: a long time, the people that came around with the
- 32:53Speaker 5: people that they met at these physical places. If I
- 32:55Speaker 5: go through some ship, if I when God forbid something
- 32:57Speaker 5: happened to me, I tweet about it, and he's gonna
- 32:59Speaker 5: be like, you know what I'm saying.
- 33:01Speaker 1: He's gonna say somebody like nobody gonna come to help.
- 33:08Speaker 9: Speaking of community, what were you trying to do with
- 33:10Speaker 9: Kamala's voice, Like, what was the oh, I was just gonna.
- 33:14Speaker 1: I just wanted to yea hell, stay up. I was
- 33:17Speaker 1: so I heard.
- 33:18Speaker 5: I heard the little thing I've seen everybody tweet like,
- 33:20Speaker 5: dam Kamala sounds so good on the phone.
- 33:22Speaker 1: I was like, dang, we shouldrobably used that for our album.
- 33:25Speaker 1: I just needed the AI voice.
- 33:26Speaker 5: I'm just gonna you know what I'm saying, since some
- 33:28Speaker 5: voice notes how to put like yeah, getting that, that's
- 33:30Speaker 5: what you did.
- 33:32Speaker 2: Y'all got Snoop on the record on perfect, which was
- 33:35Speaker 2: y'all going for like a sensual seduction.
- 33:38Speaker 5: No not with that song, Snoop, just vibe with the record, bro,
- 33:42Speaker 5: Like I said, that was another pandemic record. We made
- 33:44Speaker 5: that one, like when we were just sitting there, sitting
- 33:46Speaker 5: around the crib. My homie came through the old school
- 33:48Speaker 5: sign and beat, so I tried to make something appropriate
- 33:50Speaker 5: for the beat. And then when Snoop heard it, he
- 33:52Speaker 5: actually dog walked us crazy on that song because he
- 33:56Speaker 5: but that's yeah, but that's what we wanted, you know
- 33:57Speaker 5: what I'm saying. Like I said, this, this whole project
- 33:59Speaker 5: is a tribute to like to that period of like
- 34:01Speaker 5: the early two thousands. We was looking at all these
- 34:03Speaker 5: folks like legends, you know what I'm saying. Like even
- 34:05Speaker 5: the even the cover and the packaging, it's all based
- 34:07Speaker 5: on like tu Nami and shit like that.
- 34:09Speaker 1: Like that's for us.
- 34:10Speaker 5: That would be like a day coming home from school,
- 34:12Speaker 5: you watch a little Tunami. You bumped some, Snoop, you

- 38:53Speaker 2: was a person who was like so meticulous with everything
- 38:55Speaker 2: that she did. So in my mind, like she just
- 38:58Speaker 2: knew when she was ready to go. And even if
- 39:00Speaker 2: you look at like her social media leading up to it,
- 39:02Speaker 2: she was posting things like I wonder what my next
- 39:04Speaker 2: life gonna be, Like she was like she was like
- 39:06Speaker 2: COVID taught me that I would have jumped off the
- 39:08Speaker 2: slave ship long before we got here, Like so she knew.
- 39:11Speaker 2: And so it kind of just makes me look at
- 39:12Speaker 2: people like that different, Like maybe some people.
- 39:14Speaker 6: Just know what it's crazy to say that, because I mean,
- 39:17Speaker 6: you know, with different religions and stuff, you know, suicides
- 39:19Speaker 6: of sin and this that. But like with some people,
- 39:22Speaker 6: some I mean niggas who believe in reincarnation. It's like, hey, bro,

- 39:29Speaker 6: it over bro, like straight up, and I just had

- 39:33Speaker 6: like some people being deep suffering, you know what I'm saying,
- 39:36Speaker 6: And like, if that's your choice, that's your choice. We
- 39:38Speaker 6: can help you. If you won't help, but if that's
- 39:40Speaker 6: your choice, that's your choice, that's right. I'm not encouraging,
- 39:43Speaker 6: not encouraging it at all. But you can get help,
- 39:46Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying. Like that's the thing, Like

- 41:51Speaker 6: nigga do whatever the hell he wanted to do, and
- 41:53Speaker 6: did he ever feel like he did something to somebody
- 41:56Speaker 6: else projection or or whatever, like you know what I'm saying,
- 41:59Speaker 6: pull pressure and all that, like that, he gonna take
- 42:01Speaker 6: a step and he's gonna be like, you know what,
- 42:02Speaker 6: that ain't what I'm trying to do because I'm gonna
- 42:04Speaker 6: do whatever the hell I want to do it. I

- 42:14Speaker 5: the one time with any you know what.
- 42:16Speaker 6: This ain't me y'all. And then I respect that ship.
- 42:19Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. I respect the nigga would
- 42:20Speaker 6: be like, you know, I wasn't feeling that ship. You
- 42:22Speaker 6: do that ship one hundred thousand of people? Who else
- 42:24Speaker 6: gonna do that ship?
- 42:25Speaker 5: I'm saying, niggas, that's not that big broos even be
- 42:28Speaker 5: on that tight time and we, like I said, I
- 42:30Speaker 5: was backstage when it happen and The only first thing
- 42:32Speaker 5: I can think was like, damn, I gotta beat this
- 42:33Speaker 5: traffic because niggas gonna leave.
- 42:35Speaker 1: And so I got Damn I.
- 42:39Speaker 5: Got to go for the five hours, I didn't see
- 42:42Speaker 5: the Fowers. As soon as he said that, you like
- 42:45Speaker 5: you can feel like the whole crowd. But also it
- 42:49Speaker 5: was just so surprising. It wasn't bro, it wasn't we
- 42:51Speaker 5: wasn't telling him do it. He was like now that
- 42:53Speaker 5: he was listening as anyway, and he wasn't telling us
- 42:55Speaker 5: about it. He just went up there and I think
- 42:57Speaker 5: he had like a real moment with himself and was
- 42:58Speaker 5: like and also, you know, school boy was that dream Ville?
- 43:01Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, Like we we all know
- 43:03Speaker 5: each other. If it wasn't for for t TD, we
- 43:04Speaker 5: wouldn't even be on Dreamville. So like they they tapping
- 43:07Speaker 5: them through the law for us to even meet Cole.
- 43:09Speaker 6: So like, yeah, they went, we went on tour with
- 43:11Speaker 6: t That's our first.
- 43:14Speaker 1: Episode to it.
- 43:14Speaker 5: But like Isaiah was on that tour for a little while,
- 43:16Speaker 5: sizzs on like it was all it was like Hendrickan
- 43:19Speaker 5: and Q had already kind of blown a little bit.
- 43:21Speaker 5: Eisode was going with these days was a really really
- 43:23Speaker 5: good project and we was we was opening so early
- 43:26Speaker 5: like motherfuckers, was like just walking in. But in that time,
- 43:29Speaker 5: like we Cole came to one of the shows, that's
- 43:31Speaker 5: the show we did up here, and he would come
- 43:33Speaker 5: early as fuck to see who's opening. And Top was like, Yo,
- 43:36Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. All the pieces kind of online.
- 43:38Speaker 5: It's like, oh, yeah, these niggas over for us, we
- 43:40Speaker 5: like them, and next thing we know, yeah, next thing we.
- 43:43Speaker 1: Know, were on dream vill.
- 43:44Speaker 2: Yeah, when he apologized, I didn't have a problem with
- 43:46Speaker 2: it because when he said he was protecting his piece
- 43:48Speaker 2: and he said he hadn't had he been sleeping good
- 43:50Speaker 2: for ten years.
- 43:51Speaker 1: But now he wasn't.
- 43:52Speaker 6: I was like, oh, I completely what I'm saying, and
- 43:54Speaker 6: that when the nigga do something he don't want to do,
- 43:56Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, when you're doing something you
- 43:58Speaker 6: want to do.
- 44:03Speaker 5: I might say I wouldn't have done that, but because
- 44:05Speaker 5: I just like keeping up ship it's just fun, I
- 44:07Speaker 5: would have. I also can detach, you know what I'm saying.
- 44:09Speaker 5: I think Kolbe really like internally every move is an
- 44:12Speaker 5: internal move in.
- 44:14Speaker 2: So let's go back to a sacon. So when he
- 44:15Speaker 2: first when he did the seven minute drill, did y'all
- 44:18Speaker 2: think to y'rself, Damn, we're gonna have to it's gonna
- 44:20Speaker 2: be us against TV.
- 44:21Speaker 3: Think I was gonna jump in.
- 44:22Speaker 6: I could detach, Bro.
- 44:25Speaker 1: That wasn't my beef. Bro, They're not even the same
- 44:27Speaker 1: like classes us.
- 44:27Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, like they that's like, that's
- 44:29Speaker 5: like when some seniors get to find in the freshman
- 44:31Speaker 5: just walk past.
- 44:32Speaker 1: I ain't jump in, you know what I'm saying, Get
- 44:35Speaker 1: my books on. I might watch a little bit crane, bro.
- 44:45Speaker 2: So when he dies the new record, what y'all think
- 44:47Speaker 2: of the new record? Just on some hip hop ship.
- 44:49Speaker 1: I ain't listen to it. I'm being honest, man, if
- 44:51Speaker 1: you don't cut it out, I just got around to it.
- 44:55Speaker 1: It's great, ye I haven't got around. Yes, you're not
- 45:01Speaker 1: gonna lie? Yeah, I can't.
- 45:03Speaker 6: I listened to it once I heard I can't really
- 45:05Speaker 6: leave you. I listened one time like that.
- 45:09Speaker 1: I didn't like that.
- 45:10Speaker 9: It's okay if you're just tired of listening.
- 45:12Speaker 1: I literally listened to her one time.
- 45:14Speaker 6: So I can't really say what I like.
- 45:16Speaker 2: I heard one lie like sonically, I just didn't like
- 45:19Speaker 2: what he was singing in it, like, I don't want
- 45:20Speaker 2: to hear about how deadly your pin is. Now that's
- 45:23Speaker 2: what you're talking about, and people think, but I don't
- 45:25Speaker 2: want to hear that you had your moment cold like,
- 45:28Speaker 2: let's move on.
- 45:29Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I think if I was him, I
- 45:30Speaker 5: would just put the whole different song out like some
- 45:32Speaker 5: other ships while we're talking about this at all, But honestly,
- 45:35Speaker 5: I haven't.

- 48:10Speaker 2: the comic book.
- 48:11Speaker 6: We were trying to figure it out. We flirting around,
- 48:16Speaker 6: like you got.
- 48:17Speaker 5: We got like two teams. That's like kind of simultaneously
- 48:20Speaker 5: building different i ps.
- 48:22Speaker 3: Let's get into a joint up that which I want
- 48:23Speaker 3: to hear.
- 48:24Speaker 6: Let's let's play that little you more?
- 48:26Speaker 1: Do you got it that?
- 48:28Speaker 6: What you want to hear?
- 48:28Speaker 1: That you want to I want to hear single.
- 48:32Speaker 2: To chat off? You got it enough to his record?
- 48:35Speaker 2: He did?
- 48:36Speaker 5: It was it was it wasn't enough to his record.
- 48:38Speaker 5: When we first got there, Chad was in the It
- 48:40Speaker 5: was the reason the song sounds. They were together when
- 48:43Speaker 5: you were before they was beefing twenty twenty two.
- 48:45Speaker 1: We was all there together.
- 48:49Speaker 3: So when Real got on the boat, the Chad get
- 48:51Speaker 3: on it with him, stay with us, started.
- 49:00Speaker 1: And played.
- 49:00Speaker 5: But you know, Chad played like hell of instruments, you
- 49:02Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. Like Forrell is like a great
- 49:03Speaker 5: idea guy. He puts a lot of drums down, a
- 49:05Speaker 5: lot of soundscapes. But Chad gonna play the intricacies. So
- 49:08Speaker 5: Chad stayed to do the interesting. We thought that's what
- 49:10Speaker 5: their dynamic was. Farrell gets on boats Chad, you know
- 49:13Speaker 5: what I'm saying, state and played the guitar.
- 49:14Speaker 8: And you think that it was cooking up the whole time?
- 49:17Speaker 7: Yo?
- 49:17Speaker 8: Does it now?
- 49:18Speaker 1: Probably? I mean me and him had a little tentionon
- 49:20Speaker 1: at that time. I think it was like just tension
- 49:22Speaker 1: just across the board, and I.
- 49:23Speaker 2: Think you forget the y'all fighting. So he took Chad
- 49:25Speaker 2: off the record.
- 49:26Speaker 8: Yeah, just took and just walked off and went on
- 49:29Speaker 8: the boat.
- 49:29Speaker 1: But he didn't in that order the song. The song.
- 49:32Speaker 5: We had the song for years with both of them
- 49:34Speaker 5: on it, and then really within the last couple of
- 49:37Speaker 5: months of clearing everything, uh, it became featuring for Real
- 49:42Speaker 5: and that that took. That took a couple of steps
- 49:43Speaker 5: to get to that process too, because it was produced
- 49:45Speaker 5: by Pharrell then, but his voice.
- 49:48Speaker 1: So I guess he changed the feature in for Real.
- 49:49Speaker 1: Then he dropped the Lego movie and then he stood
- 49:52Speaker 1: on that. It's like, okay, well because.
- 49:55Speaker 3: Right now I think Chad is actually suing for real.
- 49:57Speaker 2: So he probably didn't want it to be featuring Neptune.
- 49:59Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I asked questions and stuff like that changed
- 50:02Speaker 8: and you just be like.
- 50:02Speaker 6: Well, okay, that's not my bid.
- 50:04Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not saying to ask no question, And if
- 50:06Speaker 5: I can ask the nigga directly, I'm gonna ask.
- 50:07Speaker 1: But like I'm not going to.
- 50:08Speaker 6: Ask people like nah, if I sit down in front
- 50:11Speaker 6: of you talk.
- 50:12Speaker 5: Like we chilling talking, we're drinking fores tequila would be
- 50:14Speaker 5: twelve shots you know ask you that's pretty it's pretty vulnerable.
- 50:17Speaker 3: But did they take the instrumental off to that that.
- 50:20Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure they interpolated them differently. I'm pretty sure
- 50:23Speaker 5: they wasn't the same.
- 50:24Speaker 3: It wasn't the same.
- 50:25Speaker 1: Yeah, because the version of the song that I play
- 50:27Speaker 1: on my phone, I love believe that there.
- 50:30Speaker 3: This version was was changed up a little bit for
- 50:32Speaker 3: the clearances.
- 50:34Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 50:35Speaker 2: Now you also said so you said y'all have beef.
- 50:37Speaker 2: So is that where the solo project started to come in?
- 50:40Speaker 2: Is that when you're no?
- 50:41Speaker 5: I think when I say there was, I was. I'll say,
- 50:43Speaker 5: this is what happened when we was in that for
- 50:44Speaker 5: real session. I had did something. This nigga had said
- 50:48Speaker 5: something and I had just had enough, right, So I'm like,
- 50:50Speaker 5: you say what he said. I came in with what
- 50:52Speaker 5: you said, but I know whatever he said. I was like,
- 50:53Speaker 5: you never liked my ideas and looked at us like
- 51:00Speaker 5: but we did it in front of Pharreal So that
- 51:01Speaker 5: was a little embarrassing. But also, this is my daughter,
- 51:04Speaker 5: it's my brother.
- 51:04Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, we gonna I mean ship,
- 51:07Speaker 6: but I should be able to say what I feel
- 51:08Speaker 6: to my brother, to my family. They take it how
- 51:11Speaker 6: they take it.
- 51:12Speaker 1: And that's how I took it.
- 51:13Speaker 5: I was like, you don't never being with the ship
- 51:14Speaker 5: I do niggas well, I ain't listening to yours. That's
- 51:16Speaker 5: how I'm not even listening to you. And Forrell took
- 51:18Speaker 5: that the it's like, oh he must like so. And
- 51:21Speaker 5: then also the whole time them niggas was like working
- 51:23Speaker 5: together but not really talking even in the same room,
- 51:25Speaker 5: so like the.
- 51:27Speaker 8: Hell of the room.
- 51:28Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know it was that's that's art, bro,
- 51:30Speaker 1: Like that's the I don't have no problem none of
- 51:32Speaker 1: that ship.
- 51:33Speaker 6: I don't know. She ain't always peachy when you're dealing
- 51:35Speaker 6: with like real, especially when it's creativity.
- 51:37Speaker 1: Bro.
- 51:37Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. Everybody got their ego into
- 51:39Speaker 6: it to a certainty, but they're nothing wrong with ego
- 51:45Speaker 6: though it's a part of If you don't got no ego,
- 51:46Speaker 6: then you're not gonna have no brovido either, you know
- 51:48Speaker 6: what I'm saying.
- 51:49Speaker 3: Went without speaking.
- 51:51Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't keep track of that. I
- 51:52Speaker 1: don't know that.

- 52:13Speaker 5: so it's like, yeah, you might have creative differences, but
- 52:16Speaker 5: end the day like nigga fun thing. We know we
- 52:18Speaker 5: represent not only just for us, but like for our
- 52:20Speaker 5: part of Atlanta, for the southwest side of Atlanta.
